Abstract

Established in 1995, the Tax Section’s prestigious Distinguished Service Award (DSA) has been bestowed upon 20 individuals in recognition of their extraordinary contributions to the tax profession and the tax system. I am fortunate to have enjoyed professional and personal relationships with virtually all of these honorees. As a result, I can attest first-hand to the special qualities and accomplishments that prompted their selection, and I welcome this opportunity to review the history of the DSA for the first two decades of its existence.
